Bob Evans Farms Inc. has promised long-term job growth in New Albany, but has gotten a little smaller for now.

The restaurant and food products company, which moved its headquarters from the south side of Columbus to the northeast suburb last fall, cut an estimated 25 jobs at its home office in the third quarter that ended in January.

“We don’t anticipate any meaningful impact on our net head count long-term as we’re focused on growing our Bob Evans brands in both our restaurants and our food products businesses, maximizing the more than $180 million in investments we’ve made in Ohio,” the company said in a statement.

“This included the select reduction in personnel announced in earnings yesterday, largely focused at our headquarters, ensuring alignment to these new general and administrative cost expectations,” a separate statement said.

The earnings announcement said there were personnel reductions at restaurants, in the Bob Evans Farms Foods business and at the corporate office.
